Our investigation turned up a reliable supplier iri Boulder--Data Display Corporation (proposal attached). A cost analysis of the proposal is also attached. PROS• s The displays are an effective and flexible means of disseminating information. • Bus passengers are a "captive" audience. • The information provided might alleviate some questions that passengers currently ask bus drivers. Service could therefore be more timely and efficient. CONS: s Significant cost of equipment and on-going cost of changing messages. ® Information could stimulate passengers to ask bus drivers more questions, ultimately slowing down overall service. MEMORANDUM TO RON PHILLIPS REGARDING BUS VARIABLE MESSAGE SIGNS NOVEMBER 28, 1988 PAGE 2 RECOMMENDATION• We deliver guest services to a population that is constantly changing. We find that a majority of that population is "hungry" for information of all types. .Variable message signs could help inform our guests as to current information and events.

For additional information contact: flan `I. Bloom Executive Vice President {303)494-9400 FAX:(3U3)494-9486 PART 1 GENERAL REQUIREMENTS 1. RE~UIR.E~1E~'TS The Tocan of Vail requires that programmable message signs be mounted in the interior of town buses. The sins are to be located at the front of the bus above the windshield. The primary purpose of the sign is to provide timel,v information to visitors concerning local events and special programs. The following considerations are especially critical: ~ Excellent readablity of signs Ease of operation *'Reliability The advantages that Data Display Corporation can offer as a vendor are: * Data Display was established in specializes in the design and m. message s,vstems. * The equipment specified in this in Boulder, Colorado. * The equipment specified in this shelf" technology that has been 1980, in Boulder, and ~.nufacture of electronic proposal is manufactured proposal utilizes "off the field tested. 2 . OPERAT'IOti The system that DDC proposes is a network that allows messages to be programmed and stored on an IBM compatible PC using Data Display's SignComm software. IThe PC does not have to be dedicated to only the sign system.) These messages may then be transi'erred to the individual bus signs via direct, detachable data cable. A brief operating procedure outline follows: a. :Messages are programmed orr the PC and stored on diskette. Lp to 10,000 individually coded message files may be saved. b. Bus is parked in service area. c. Data cable is connected to sign. d. PC operator begins transmission of selected messages to sign, which replaces previous messages on sign. e. Once transmission is completed, data cable is discon- nected. f. This procedure may be repeated as often as necessary. This system allows for additional signs to be added to the network as often as necessary. Another benefit is that signs may also be placed at other stationary locations, if required, and also programmed using the same computer.

Vail, CO 81657 Dear Mr. Gordon: It was a pleasure speaking with you today. I appreciate being. given the opportunity to submit the enclosed proposal which includes specifications and prices for LED electronic message sins to_be mounted in the village buses. Data Display Corporation has been manufacturing both indoor and outdoor electronic message displays for over nine years. We are the leader in the industry and have developed a reputation for unsurpassed quality, reliability and ease of operation. We take pride in the fact that our equipment has been the choice of many diverse customers including ATT, US West, MCI, IBM and the City of Las Ve.~as. The system that we are proposing is designed specifically for transit applications and the technology involved is tried and tested, not a prototype. Should you have any questions, or would like to arrange a demonstration, please don't hesitate to contact me. Ve ,- truly years , lan M. Bloom Executive Vice President AMB/me enc. 5171 Eldorado Springs Dr. • Boulder, CO 80303.303/494-9400 • Telex: 6502144890 MCI L Application: ~Ynancial Institutions Data Display's System 202 Indoor and System 411 Outdoor electronic displays are perfect for financial institutions. With them they can communicate effectively to all their customers. United Bank of Broomfield, Colorado, was using printed materials as their only means of communicating with their banking customers. Mary Ziegler Suess, Marketing Director, noted, "Our printed material was being ignored. People don't pick it up, and when we enclosed it in their bank statements, they often just threw it away without reading it. We really had no way of communicating on a continuous basis." « We cut our cost in half, and increased our communication capabilities, by buying from Data Display. » "An operations officer contacted a (Data Display) competitor, and we were considering purchasing from them," Suess recalls. Then Suess received a direct mail piece from Data Display. `After comparing companies and products, I found that we didn't really need the extremely large sized sign that the competitor was selling. We cut our cost in half, and increased our communication capabilities, by buying from Data Display." Suess noted the flexibility of having both an indoor and an outdoor display. "Webe installed the outdoor display permanently, but we're able to move the indoor display anywhere we'd like." The advanced networking capabilities offered with Data Display's Indoor/Outdoor package, utilizing the bank's existing computer system, allows the signs to be programmed quickly and easily. From their central source computer, messages can be transmitted to either display individually, or to both displays simultaneously. Suess says the bank also uses the Time Schedule function, which allows a message or messages to be programmed for display automatically according totime/ day coding. "We have a message that comes up between 6:00 and 7:00 every morning at the motor banking area that says, `Windows will open at 7:00 a.m.' We also display our lobby hours on our indoor display in the 24-hour teller area," Suess says. Suess states that " 35% of our customers use the motor banks as their primary means of banking. They don't even come into the lobby. We can now communicate to these customers through the outdoor display. We felt we wanted to place the indoor display in the 24-hour teller area, rather than in our lobby, in order to address those customers as well. All in all, that's a large segment of customers that we weren't able to reach before." Are the Data Displays noticed? "We know they're being noticed!" says Suess, "Our motor banking customers were calling to ask us to slow the messages down. We thought wed have (the messages) running by on the display quickly, otherwise theyd get bored, but they were calling us saying the messages were going too fast!" Suess also cited the decrease in complaints from motor banking customers concerning the long waits in line. "With the installation of the outdoor display they perceive that the time theywait for service has decreased. They feel as though they're not waiting as long." The Data Displays installed at United Bank of Broomfield are also used for one other very important customer message. Says Suess, "It's always great to be able to thank our customers, and now that's very easy to do!"

D A rI' Application: Communications IIsing Data Displays as a fast, efficient and cost effective means of communicating with employees is one of the many applications for our products. Here is just one example. Scha,rleen Flynn, Mountain Bell Sales Manager, had been using a chalk board to communicate with 55 sales representatives in the Boulder, Colorado service center. "For nine months we had been attempting to post information for our sales people on the chalk board, and it was very inefficient" Flynn says. "The problem was, nobody could see it from their desk. They had to getup andwalk over to the supervisor's desk to see what it said." < <... ~9J,000 in savings ... as a result of using Data Displays. > > About that time, Ed Rodriguez, Assistant Sales Manager, noticed one of the 19 Data Displays in opera- tion atMountain Bell's Denver office. He inquired further and learned that Mountain Bell had 90 Data Displays placed throughout its network. He also learned that the Denver office projected $99,000 in savings over 3 years in clerical time, photocopies and paper as a result of using Data Displays. Rodriguez and Flynn arranged for a product demon- stration and shortly thereafter purchased two Data Displays and a keyboard. "We looked at other (display) companies and were unimpressed," Flynn says. "They had the attitude, `We want you to buy it and how you figure it out is your business."' "Data Display's system was easy to learn," Flynn recalls, citing the support she received from her Data Display representative. "It truly is very easy to use. We've never had to call for additional instructions." Mountain Bell's customer sales and service repre- Call (303) 494-9400 ~~ Data Display Corporation D I S P L A V ' G Q ' `` ~-, ,y;:~ .

"Our primacy goal was to provide a convenient method of displaying our installation due dates, meeting times, policy changes -anything our people need to know and need to know immediately," Flynn says. "(Data Displays) really do enhance their efficiencybecausetbey can get information without having to leave their desks or go through ZO or l5 pieces of paper every day to learn what's going on." "We're always finding new uses for them," she says. "Every day we display the names of the top sales people. Now, they count on seeing who that is, and if it's not up on time they're angry! We also use them for things like birthdays and anniversaries.Tbey keep the managers creative, and most of our employees really like it. They like to see their name in lights."

The Task Force proposes the following recommendations as to price, distribution, and production of a "locator" map: • Full-color map should be made available free of charge to individual members of the public. • For anyone or any agency (lodge, etc.) desiring more than one copy of the map, a charge of $.05 (five cents) should be charged per map. 240,000 of these folded maps will be printed. • 10,000 copies of the full-color map will be printed un- folded. These maps, which will be appropriate for mounting and/or framing, should be available at a charge of $1.00 per map. • The Task Force also felt that it is important that a more detailed "building locator" map be produced. A draft of a locator map was developed as a product of the original Signage Improvement Program (attached). It would be necessary to refine this map with a process similar to the one used in reviewing the full-color map. Two operations are available to produce the "locator" map (attached); Town staff recommends producing the color option of this map because major benefits result from color with minimum added cost.
